Dear colleagues

After many months I am very happy to announce that the European Union funded PopuLLar project (Motivating secondary school students to learn languages with relevant media) that you are an associate partner (AP) for, has been funded and will have its kick-off meeting on the 10 and 11 of January in London. Associate partners cannot be funded to attend meetings I am afraid, though anyone who is near enough is welcome to join us.

1. You can join our first Internet page on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/pages/PopuLLar-Music-and-Language-Learning/181858685219155 . Joining the Facebook page is a very useful as it will allow you to keep in touch with the project, especially in this opening period and also help with the dissemination of the project.

2. On the second day of the kick-off meeting we will be holding a webinar (online meeting) specifically for our many associate partners. It will take place in the afternoon on the 11th January. If you are not familiar with webinars here is the Wikipedia article that explains: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_conferencing

We are looking forward with great anticipation to the project and to your help to make it into a special project with real impact.

Best wishes and happy New Year.
